I highly appreciate everything everyone does for the Wiki in terms of adding content, the best way you can help the Amtwiki is by contributing there to help make it the best repository of information available.

That being said, success comes with its own price, and the cost of keeping the Amtwiki running has steadily increased as its content and traffic has increased.  With that in mind, I asked awhile back how people would feel about allowing contributions to the Amtwiki, by that I mean monetary contributions. I am hesitant to take this step, but based on the feedback I received I am going ahead.  Now, this is going to be done with a few stipulations:
+
as long as this arrangements stays in place we should not need to resume the donations.
  
* All funds collected will be used only for the monthly costs (to the ISP) of keeping the Amtwiki running.
+
I want to thank everyone for their support in keeping it running until that timeThank you.  - R
* Donors will be made public unless they express the desire to not be so, and will be listed on a [[donors]] page.  If you wish to contribute anonymously please indicate so on the donation page (accessed via the button below).
 
* The total of all contributions will be kept posted here, as will the monthly costs.
 
* I want it made clear that other than being listed here and thanked for so doing, donating will not give anyone any rights within the amtwiki beyond that of any other userLike anyone else you can have your own page protected from general editing, but it will not allow you to violate various style and content guidelines we have used here (e.g., cannot list titles not recognized by amtgard, cannot force deletion of content, etc)
 
* lastly, I humbly thank anyone who feels motivated after all that to contribute.   
 
* The donation button goes to my personal (Andrew Apold) paypal account, I might see about creating one with amtwiki's name on it in the near future, but for now anything sent via that button will be identified and tracked as such (I don't use paypal for much anyway so it won't get mixed into things).
